In this episode, editor-in-chief David Rubinstein discusses AI in the Security Operations Center with Jimmy Mesta, co-founder and CTO at RAD Security. Among the topics addressed are:
- How AI amplifies existing SOC strengths rather than inventing new capabilities from scratch?
- Why foundational elements, like signal hygiene, clear workflows, and documented context, must be in place before a SOC can benefit from AI.
- Lessons from past SIEM and SOAR deployments that security teams should apply to avoid repeating the same mistakes with AI in the SOC.
- The steps SOC leaders should take now (e.g., cleaning alerts, mapping workflows, documenting incidents) to ensure AI becomes leverage instead of liability.
